It is created using an automatic pipeline starting from the Conceptual Captions Image-Captioning Dataset.

The data is provided here(note the file should start downloading immediately) as a single CSV file with the following columns:
Video URL, Start timestamp (microseconds), End timestamp(microseconds), Caption.
The data will not be exactly the same as the dataset used to train models in the paper but should be similar. Note that some sections of YouTube videos might contain static frames that are panned in or out. These can be filtered out using a motion filtering tool.
